Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue

Chapter 339 A Love-Obsessed Mind is Invincible

Qian Renxue walked to the pavilion by the lake, glanced at Fire Phoenix Douluo, and immediately sensed his identity as a title holder with a ring of nine or higher.

It seems that Orange is afraid of me, so she dragged a level nine Soul Master into the mix as a shield.

"Long time no see." Qian Renxue handed over the envelope that Ju Zi had given her earlier. "This must be the one who delivered the letter, right?"

The Fire Phoenix Douluo was dressed in a tight-fitting outfit with a fire phoenix symbol on the chest. Qian Renxue looked at her curiously, then at Ju Zi, who was wearing the same clothes, and understood.

"You joined the army?"

"Yes, young master of the temple." Orange's voice was low. "We haven't finished our conversation yet, have we? I've been waiting for the meal you promised."

Qian Renxue smiled helplessly: "I've been too busy. Ever since we parted ways, I've been busy with this and that, and after the competition, I've been dealing with all sorts of things."

"I only arrived in Moonshadow City yesterday, and then I heard that you had visited Lord Silvermoon."

Orange raised her head, her eyes revealing a stubbornness, but also a hint of excitement.

"Young Master, I am truly grateful to you," Orange said. "Because of the series of events you did in Star Luo City, you truly threw that empire into chaos. Although you didn't actually appear in the whole affair, I could sense that you orchestrated it all."

Qian Renxue nodded: "If you have something to say, please speak frankly."

Ju Zi brewed tea for Qian Renxue and handed it to her, saying, "Young Master, I won't waste any more time. I need your and your forces' support."

Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow; she seemed to sense what Ju Zi was about to say.

"We don't know when the war will break out, but it certainly won't be long. During the war, I will not harm civilians..."

Afterwards, Ju Zi briefly explained her soul guidance infiltration plan, which was basically the same as Qian Renxue's idea.

"Do you know why I need your and the Temple's help?" Orange asked.

A hint of admiration appeared in Qian Renxue's eyes: "You want to go beyond just using soul guidance technology for infiltration during the attack. After advancing along the way, you want the members of the Holy Temple to establish branch temples in the cities you occupy. You want to carry out the dual plan of soul master awakening and soul guidance infiltration simultaneously, truly winning people's hearts, right?"

Fire Phoenix Douluo glanced at the two girls in surprise, but remained silent.

"Young Master, you're right." Orange nodded. "I won't choose the kind of 'Three Alls' policy that the Star Luo Empire used when it attacked the Sun Moon Empire before, looting all rare metals and resources, killing all the threatening Soul Masters, and burning down the granaries before leaving. They were simply a bunch of beasts."

Qian Renxue sighed: "Actually, when I heard that you took over those cities that had taken in the people who had fled from Xingluo, I was a little worried that you might do something foolish. It seems that I was overthinking it."

A flash of hatred crossed Orange's eyes, but then she closed them again: "My target is the White Tiger Duke's lineage, not those ordinary people."

"Alright." Qian Renxue tapped her fingers on the stone table. "I agree to help you with this plan, because it would also be good for the development of my temple. However, I have a condition for this."

"Please speak."

"The temple in the southern part of the empire is called the Silver Moon Temple. It has made good progress in the past six months since its establishment, but it is not enough," Qian Renxue said.

"You want me to use my identity to help the temple's development in some ways?" Orange understood. "But, currently only Grandma Phoenix knows that I am the Crown Princess."

Fire Phoenix Douluo nodded slightly: "Yes, this girl is able to gain a foothold in the Soul Master Corps because of her own abilities. She only entered the Corps by using the identity of the Crown Princess, and with the cultivation of a fifth-level Soul Master, she obtained a mid-level position."

Qian Renxue thought to herself that she had finally made the right judgment.

Even before, she sensed that the girl beside Xu Tianran was no ordinary person. She too had experienced palace intrigue, knowing its deceit and cruelty, and the terrifying prospect of serving a ruler like walking on thin ice—of course, she herself had once been the one who instilled fear in others. Later, Qian Renxue investigated Ju Zi's background, learning how she had come to be by Xu Tianran's side and become the crown prince's most trusted confidante.

This woman, Ju Zi, is very patient and patient. Her only weakness is that she's not ruthless enough. Of course, this is because she has no background and her own strength is insufficient to support her.

"Your Highness, let's talk alone," Qian Renxue suddenly said.

A gentle, luminous soul power appeared, stunning Fire Phoenix Douluo. Then, a completely still soul power barrier enveloped the small pavilion.

"This..." Orange sighed helplessly.

"Don't worry, my teacher won't listen to our conversation." Qian Renxue stood up, walked behind her, and placed her hands on her delicate shoulders. "Negotiations have resumed, time is of the essence, war could break out at any time. What makes you think I can help you escape Xu Tianran and regain your freedom?"

"I can see your hatred for the Three Kingdoms of the East. Your Highness, if you agree, I am willing to lead troops to conquer all three kingdoms." Ju Zi said in a low voice, "My goal is simple: after destroying the White Tiger lineage, I can at least be free to pay my respects to my father."

"Anything else?"

"I'm fed up with living with Xu Tianran. I'm constantly on edge, afraid that this lunatic will drag me to the basement one day if he's unhappy." Orange seemed to be getting emotional, speaking with some agitation. "Only by leaving him can I be free. I don't love him; I want to experience a real relationship!"

Qian Renxue thought to herself that the resentment from a romantic relationship was really strong, strong enough to make the Crown Princess rebel.

"I can't help you with finding a boyfriend," Qian Renxue said helplessly.

Orange's eyes lit up: "So you mean you agree to help me in the future?"

"This will have to be exchanged for your future achievements. We're just cooperating right now." Qian Renxue thought for a moment, recalling the agreement between her and Coco Nair. "A contract, do you understand what a contract is? Whether you can leave Xu Tianran in the future depends on whether you can conquer the Three Kingdoms."

According to Wu Yun's intelligence, Ju Zi had only been with the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentorship for two months, but she had already risen through the ranks by leading troops to handle border conflicts and proposing various plans. Therefore, Qian Renxue was willing to trust her this once.

She wasn't afraid that Ju Zi might have ulterior motives, because being love-struck is invincible.

Moreover, she didn't believe that Xu Tianran was willing to be controlled by her. Whether he would turn against her in the future was unknown. Controlling Ju Zi might become a trump card to deal with this Crown Prince of the Sun and Moon.

After learning about the Sun Moon Empire's soul tools, she had no doubt that even with Ye Xishui's current cultivation level, she could still get injured.

In fact, she was gradually and quietly dividing some of the forces of the Sun and Moon Royal Family, such as Kong Deming of the Hall of Worship, and Ju Zi now.

"Okay, it's settled then." Qian Renxue and Ju Zi signed the contract.

Ju Zi stared blankly at Qian Renxue's departing figure. After discussing the next steps with her, the other party didn't linger at all and wasn't willing to listen to her say another word, which made her feel a little hurt.

In the original story, Ju Zi still longed for a beautiful romance, until Wang Dong (who was still disguised as a man at this time) revealed to her that she was a girl and lied to Ju Zi that Huo Yuhao had someone he liked. From then on, she became heartless and focused on revenge.

-

She still clearly remembers the firm look in Wang Dong's eyes when he answered her question. Even though he just nodded vigorously, in that instant, Ju Zi had completely given up the last shred of hope that she was unwilling to admit but that had always existed.
